....and they lived happily ever after....

Welcome Everyone;

It has been a long while, since I read fairy tales as a child.  There was a variety of different tales with happy and not so happy endings.  This fairy tale bug though is enjoying his tale with its happy ending.

For today's card, I have used the adorable Fairy Tale Bug from High Hopes Stamps along with the Lived Happily Every After sentiment.  After colouring the image with Copic Markers, I cut it out using a Wonky Stitched Rectangle.  A bit of ribbon, a couple of flowers and some Nuvo Dream Drops finished off the card.  Unfortunately, the Dream Drops are a bit hard to see in the photo.

Fairy Tale Bug

Hello High Hopes Fans!!!

 

Happy Saturday Friends!  Here's a fun and cheery card that's sure to put a smile on your face...

 Lisa 

This is Fairy Tale Bug (P119).  This cute image could make for a great birthday card, get well card or a thinkin' of you type of card!       

 

I started by colouring the image with Tombow Markers and water. After the image was all coloured and dry, I applied some Zig-Wink of Stella brush marker-dark pink to the book.  This creates a little added sparkle to the card and is very easy to apply.

 

The pattern papers are from My Mind's Eye-Now and Then 6x6 Paper Pad, along with some SU Blush Blossom, Blue Bayou and White cardstock.  The image was cut down to a smaller size to better fit this card.   To keep this card relatively flat for mailing purposes, I did not use any foam tape under the main image.  A couple of strips of lace ribbon were added under the image, along with 2 banners.  The sentiment was die cut using a Penny Black Die Set called Hooray.  I just love the font in this set. To complete this card, a bunch of YNS-White Gumdrops were added on the banners.  I hope this card made you smile today! 

Supplies Used:

Ink - Tombow Markers - N15, N35, N55, N75, 373, 025, 743, 969, 856, 977, and 126 .  Versamark Ink Pad and Black Embossing Powder. SU Blush Blossom Ink Pad for sponging the edges of the main image.
 

Paper - My Mind's Eye - Now and Then 6x6 Paper Pad; SU Blush Blossom, Blue Bayou and White Cardstock.
 

Misc - Zig-Wink of Stella Brush Marker-Dark Pink, Penny Black Die-Hooray Set, Offray Lace Ribbon, YNS-White Gumdrops, Sponge Dauber, Water Brush, and Glue Dots.
